I was a little worried ordering with some negative reviews out, but I picked up the DInc 2 and it arrived as described and in a reasonable amount of time.

I wouldn’t call it a scam per say, I order crap from them all the time. Yes, the shipping sucks, and they don’t offer any returns which is why I wouldn’t order anything that is refurbished from them.. However you can get some good deals on the site periodically. Just be warned that you won’t be able to return the item if something goes bad, most likely they have sold out of the item. In certain cases if you bitch enough they will exchange if it is possible.

Matter of fact, I had a G-Nex before my GS3 on VzW. Yes the battery sucked, but that’s due to the SoC choice.

so, before i take the plunge (since there’s a no-return policy), if you buy off-contract and use the website to switch devices, you can keep unlimited? and if you had a 3G phone before, do you get the 4G?

I would’ve bought the hell out of that GS3 if I’d seen this earlier

Well he shouldn’t have bought a phone he didn’t like then. Some people can buy shoes online without trying on, some can’t. And the phone has a very competitive battery, 2100 mAh. I agree that it wasn’t great stock for whatever reason, but I use a faux kernel and the levels I have it set as last all day long. (6:12am-10pm) I’m sure not as long as the Note, but all day is good enough for me. {In any case} at least they’re both not iphones. so no need for further rant bashing.

…but it doesn’t work on Verizon, and most people looking at the phones in this deal will be Verizon customers.

My phone doesn’t look plastic. It looks metallic actually. And it wasn’t a half baked review. I used it for a good amount of time and not even the guy who bought it, likes it. Battery also sucks compared to the note.

“The ONLY LEGITIMATE device here is the Galaxy S3 and that should be priced at 99 dollars now” Sooooo… you think the S3 is THAT overpriced still? Coming from the dope who “applauds” Samsung, sings their high praises, and prattles on and on about how you can “afford whatever devices [you] want whenever [you] want them, that’s hilarious!

“Filled with disabling bloatware” Bloatware which can be disabled in any Android device 4.0 and above. Did you used to say how you were “in the know when it comes to technology”? Doesn’t seem like it now…

Damn, I’m glad I sold my GS3 on Craigslist for 380 last month. This deal kills resale values on used ones.

lol, he didn’t deliver any news, he delivered a half-opinion based on having his friends phone for probably no more than a few minutes. I own the N4, have since the first shipment so its been a while now. I had the S3 before it. This phone far out performs it. Gets hot the exact same as any other phone does. And the colors are actually better than the S3′s amoled screen. Samsung purposely makes their colors warmer. N4 displays its true color. The quad core allows me to be playing N.O.V.A. and jump to a text, a quick web browse and even play pandora simultaneously & seemlessly with zero lag. And aesthetically? It’s gorgeous, I find myself loving the glass on the back and looking at the design often. Much better than looking at plastic.

On paper the revolution, despite it being awful, is much better than the thunderbolt lol

Obviously you’ve never had a Gnex on Vzw. You’ll be glad it has a removable battery for when you have to swap out those “extended” OEM batteries 2-3 times a day on LTE. I love the phone but the radios in this thing, not the radio files but the radios that are physically inside, are junk. I feel like Verizon did this to nexus fans intentionally.

wish they had the note 2….

That’s probably because it’s a phone designed for women and first-time smartphone buyers….People should know this. What sucked about it? It scores around 3600 in Quadrant and does great with the 3000mAh battery. Actually puts the Droid X to shame, just saying.
